Fire Weather Planning Forecast for Central Kentucky and Southern Indiana
National Weather Service Louisville KY
336 AM EDT Wed Oct 8 2025

.DISCUSSION...With the cold front now pushing east of our area,
drier weather is expected for the next several days. Strong high
pressure over the Great Lakes today and tomorrow will promote
breezy N/NE winds, with gusts exceeding 20 mph possible. Our
coolest temperatures of the season arrive Friday morning, with
lows in the upper 30s possible. Temps look to return to the low
80s by next week.
